"O" Street, South Street to Reopen

Public Works officials today announced that "O" Street and South Street will reopen to traffic today.

"O" Street has been closed from 17th to 21st Street and will reopen to traffic ahead of the number of days allowed per the contract. Antelope Valley Parkway will continue to have lane closures while construction is completed from "K" to "P" streets. The Parkway will remain closed to through traffic from "N" to "O" streets and also from "O" and "P" streets until construction is substantially completed by Hawkins Construction Company. Substantial completion of the entire project is scheduled for late August. The "O" Street project is the last segment of Antelope Valley Parkway to be constructed.

South Street has been closed from 36th to 38th Street for construction on one of the last segments of the Antelope Valley Project. Although South Street will be open to through traffic, there will be single-lane closures to complete construction of sidewalks, fences, walls, channel walls and other construction items. These single-lane closures will not affect morning and evening rush hour commutes. In addition, 37th Street immediately south of South Street will remain closed into August until channel work is completed.
